Appellate and Postconviction Referrals for Trial Attorneys

If you are a Colorado criminal defense lawyer with a client who has just been convicted, this page is for you. I take referrals from trial counsel for direct appeals, Crim. P. 35(a) and 35(c) proceedings, and Colorado Supreme Court certiorari work. I can either take the case directly or work with your firm in a co-counsel capacity to make sure your client gets the highest quality of appellate representation.

What I do and do not take

I do take: direct appeals in the Colorado Court of Appeals; appeals from the denial of postconviction relief; restitution and sentencing appeals; and petitions for certiorari in the Colorado Supreme Court.

I do not take: trial-level representation on the underlying case, and I do not take a case where doing so would create a conflict with an existing client.

I decline cases regularly because I keep a small caseload. If I do not have capacity to read your client's record properly, I will tell you quickly so you can place the case elsewhere.
